Great news! La Torretta Resort & Spa has ordered a large inventory of Bw*SiLvEr jewelry and Wine Stoppers to start selling at their Lake Conroe, TX location!

Luckily, a girl I knew from working at McAllisters (long, long ago) Facebook-ed me and asked if I'd be interested. Thanks Facebook! She picked out the designs they wanted and I wrote up and invoice just days later. I'm excited!

If you're ever in the area, stop in and take a look at their amazing gift shop. It's a beautiful place!

And I'm kinda glad too! We spent a good amount of them driving from city to city to see our families, but it was a good time. We have a large blended mix of relatives between husband and I, so it's usually a very busy Christmas for us. Got to finally meet his uncle and his family from up north, plus spend time with his Dad's side of the family, which we only seem to see once a year.

Here we are at his Aunt's house in Houston on Christmas Day.

We were able to see our friends in San Antonio, spend time with my cousins, Grandparents, and his Mom and Step Dad. It was well worth all the traveling, plus got to see my Dad & Step mom along with meeting her son for the first time. It was a whirl-wind kind of Christmas...glad husband had some time off form work so we could fit it all in!

In business news, I did well with wine cork sales and feel very confident going into the new year with even more awesome corks and designs and vintage/antiques findings to come. We shall see... In the mean time I have a few I need to get back to finishing. Now that the season of giving has ended, the decor is put away and tree is boxed up for next time, it's about that time to get serious again.

This year I want to totally expand the sales in my business, and get motivated to get out there and promote and spread the BWSILVER name. I can't give up! Plus I also want to possibly find a part time job that will help my skills and gain experience in the business side of things. Or even graphics? Something that I can use as a tool to help me be a successful business owner.

Or find a Genie and an accountant maybe?

What are your plans/endeavors/ideas/thoughts for the new year? I can't believe it already 2011! That's weird to type...
